There might be some people who believe that
it is a good idea to buy a new technological device as soon as it is available.
However, I personally think that it is better to wait until many people have
bought it.
To begin with, if we buy a new device as
soon as it is released, there would be not enough feedbacks and information
that we can refer to. Therefore, it would be difficult to know whether the
device is of good quality or not. Let me bring my personal story as an example.
I bought a brand new iphone on its launching day. I bought it because I trusted
the brand value. However, the product quality was not as good as I expected so
I was very disappointed. If there were feedbacks on the product, I would have
read them and not buy the phone.
In addition, people can buy the same
product with cheaper price. In case of technological device, it is very common
that the prices of products would gradually go down as time goes by. According
to the market research conducted by Korea University as 500 new technological
devices as a sample, the prices of the devices went down 20% on average since
it had been launched. This results show that people would be able to buy the same
product with cheaper price if they wait just for a month. Therefore, I think
that it is economically beneficial to buy a new technological device after
waiting for a while.
In conclusion, if we wait until many people
have bought it, we would be able to get more information and buy the same
product with cheaper prices. In this regards, I think it is good idea to buy a
new technological device until many people have bought it.
